Those seem to be completely separate in my head. I think of them as demons sometimes.

Or maybe it's just that there's one category of slightly-different-from-the-self internal thought-about-a-thing-that's-bothering-me generator, and I label it a demon or a straw person after the fact depending on how the interaction goes. There's a lot of observer bias here.

Hmm. I wonder if it means anything that the straw people have voices (of a yes-man sort) and the demons are mostly interacting in thoughts.

Minds are weird.
